AFLW star Moana Hope and model wife Isabella Carlstrom welcomed their first child, daughter Svea Hope Carlstrom, in November.

‘I am the one who is going to get pregnant next,’ Moana, who has played for Collingwood and North Melbourne, said.

The proud parents are hoping to start trying via Monash IVF rounds next year, with their eventual goal to grow their brood to include three children in total.  

‘We are going to have the same donor for all babies, I say all babies because we plan on having three and Belle will do the third,’ she explained.  

The couple plan to share the IVF and pregnancy journey, with Isabella to carry two of their three children and Hope to go through one pregnancy – their second child.
